I shared some great kits deals in my online group.. thought you might want to see them too!
A whole group of really great projects for 50% off
i was thinking a little bit about Time.. ... ok truth.. I am ALWAYS thinking about time! I ran across this Ted Talk given by the Author Laura Vanderkam on how we all have 24 hours in a day which is 168 Hours in a week.
She talks about the research she did for stories she wrote, which became the book 168 Hours: You have more time than you think
What got me interested is that she believes like me, that we DO have time. It's just that we often choose to do 'other things' than what we really love.
Have you ever said 'I don't have TIME to quilt'? But you read a book, or watched TV or surfed Facebook?
It's all about choice.
I thought as this year ends, you might want to do her exercise to select 3 things to accomplish and then to make a plan to make them happen. She puts things into '3' categories. Work, Family, Self
What I notice is that we fall into a habit. A habit of surfing pinterest and all of a sudden it's 2 hours later.
Or sort of looking around without knowing what we want to do, but it's bothering us we are not doing anythin.
A Habit of not turning on the sewing machine .... but instead watching TV... which is ok.. BUT did you REALLY want to sew?
I love her thoughts on making things a priority that we really want to do
- Watch her talk for a time capsule of her thoughts...
- and if you want dive deep and make a plan .. read her book
